Way too many Americans are under the impression that the government is going to sustain their current lifestyle in retirement.

Anything that they saved is just extra to blow on having a good time because they “deserve” it.

Why not? Isn’t that the way the tax is sold?
Whoa be to the one that finally determines what happens when they die a single day before ‘benefits’ begin....Or how much they could be living off of, if not passing on, if the govt was Constitutionally bound and out of the Ponzi scheme known as SS.

Yet again, blame that on govt and the education system it foists. No wonder economics is no longer taught in K-12.

Idiots. Idiots living in a pity party delusion that everyone ‘owes’ them...
